EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, titled 'View from across street of a group of men on a street corner, New Orleans, between 1920 and 1926,' captures a moment in time during the Roaring Twenties in America. Taken by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, this image transports us back to the bustling streets of New Orleans, Louisiana, in the United States of America. The scene is set on a busy city street where a group of men, dressed in various work clothes and hats, gather on the corner. In the background, a mix of architectural styles dominates the urban landscape, with tall, imposing buildings and smaller houses lining the street. The pavement is filled with foot traffic, and the sidewalks are dotted with people going about their daily business. The photograph is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of New Orleans during this era. The men on the corner, engaged in animated conversation, add a human element to the scene, while the buildings and pavement provide a sense of stability and continuity. The image is particularly noteworthy due to its historical significance, as it offers a glimpse into the daily life of a bygone era. Arnold Genthe, a master of his craft, expertly captures the essence of the moment, using the medium of photography to freeze time and preserve history. This nitrate negative, held in the Library of Congress, is a valuable addition to the heritage art collection and serves as a reminder of the vibrant and diverse city life that once thrived in New Orleans during the 1920s.
